May I draw your attention to http://www.fightingrobots.co.uk/forum/v ... 168&t=2918 that there post. It looks like a new weight class is born, sounds interesting.

They look fantastic, the prices are pretty good too. Be interesting to see how it develops...

I must admit I was very skeptical about these machines at first, but after checking them out at Fairford and driving them for a couple of minutes I have to say these are very nice machines indeed.

It's a better starterbase than the Zeobots were.

We drove them at Nathan's birthday party, and they seem tough, I like the automatic flipper, very good for younger drivers, and they automatically self-right.

My only criticism it that they don't go very straight, but perhaps this could be tuned?

The ones I drove at Fairford drove pretty straight or I am so used to driving robots and other rc stuff that I correct the course without thinking.

As I understand it there will be an option to have a manual firing flipper as well.
